chrono-tz 0.5.3

# Chrono-TZ 0.5.3

`Chrono-TZ` is a library that provides implementors of the
[`TimeZone`][timezone] trait for [`rust-chrono`][chrono]. The
impls are generated by a build script using the [`IANA database`][iana]
and [`parse-zoneinfo`][parse_zoneinfo].

## Documentation

## Usage

Put this in your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
chrono = "0.4"
chrono-tz = "0.5"
```

Then you will need to write (in your crate root):

```rust
extern crate chrono;
extern crate chrono_tz;
```

## Examples

Create a time in one timezone and convert it to UTC

```rust
use chrono::{TimeZone, Utc};
use chrono_tz::US::Pacific;

let pacific_time = Pacific.ymd(1990, 5, 6).and_hms(12, 30, 45);
let utc_time = pacific_time.with_timezone(&Utc);
assert_eq!(utc_time, Utc.ymd(1990, 5, 6).and_hms(19, 30, 45));
```

Create a naive datetime and convert it to a timezone-aware datetime

```rust
use chrono::{TimeZone, NaiveDate};
use chrono_tz::Africa::Johannesburg;

let naive_dt = NaiveDate::from_ymd(2038, 1, 19).and_hms(3, 14, 08);
let tz_aware = Johannesburg.from_local_datetime(&naive_dt).unwrap();
assert_eq!(tz_aware.to_string(), "2038-01-19 03:14:08 SAST");
```

London and New York change their clocks on different days in March
so only have a 4-hour difference on certain days.

```rust
use chrono::TimeZone;
use chrono_tz::Europe::London;
use chrono_tz::America::New_York;

let london_time = London.ymd(2016, 3, 18).and_hms(3, 0, 0);
let ny_time = london_time.with_timezone(&New_York);
assert_eq!(ny_time, New_York.ymd(2016, 3, 17).and_hms(23, 0, 0));
```

You can get the raw offsets as well if you want to see the standard
UTC offset as well as any special offsets in effect (such as DST)
at a given time. Note that you need to import the `OffsetComponents`
trait.

```rust
use chrono::{Duration, TimeZone};
use chrono_tz::Europe::London;
use chrono_tz::OffsetComponents;

let london_time = London.ymd(2016, 5, 10).and_hms(12, 0, 0);

// London typically has zero offset from UTC, but has a 1h adjustment forward
// when summer time is in effect.
assert_eq!(london_time.offset().base_utc_offset(), Duration::hours(0));
assert_eq!(london_time.offset().dst_offset(), Duration::hours(1));
```

Adding 24 hours across a daylight savings change causes a change
in local time

```rust
use chrono::{TimeZone, Duration};
use chrono_tz::Europe::London;

let dt = London.ymd(2016, 10, 29).and_hms(12, 0, 0);
let later = dt + Duration::hours(24);
assert_eq!(later, London.ymd(2016, 10, 30).and_hms(11, 0, 0));
```

And of course you can always convert a local time to a unix timestamp

```rust
use chrono::TimeZone;
use chrono_tz::Asia::Kolkata;

let dt = Kolkata.ymd(2000, 1, 1).and_hms(0, 0, 0);
let timestamp = dt.timestamp();
assert_eq!(timestamp, 946665000);
```

Pretty-printing a string will use the correct abbreviation for the timezone

```rust
use chrono::TimeZone;
use chrono_tz::Europe::London;

let dt = London.ymd(2016, 5, 10).and_hms(12, 0, 0);
assert_eq!(dt.to_string(), "2016-05-10 12:00:00 BST");
assert_eq!(dt.to_rfc3339(), "2016-05-10T12:00:00+01:00");
```

You can convert a timezone string to a timezone using the FromStr trait

```rust
use chrono::TimeZone;
use chrono_tz::Tz;
use chrono_tz::UTC;

let tz: Tz = "Antarctica/South_Pole".parse().unwrap();
let dt = tz.ymd(2016, 10, 22).and_hms(12, 0, 0);
let utc = dt.with_timezone(&UTC);
assert_eq!(utc.to_string(), "2016-10-21 23:00:00 UTC");
```

## `no_std` Support

To use this library without depending on the Rust standard library, put this
in your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
chrono = { version = "0.4", default-features = false }
chrono-tz = { version = "0.5", default-features = false }
```

If you are using this library in an environment with limited program
space, such as a microcontroller, take note that you will also likely
need to enable optimizations and Link Time Optimization:
```toml
[profile.dev]
opt-level = 2
lto = true

[profile.release]
lto = true
```

Otherwise, the additional binary size added by this library may overflow
available program space and trigger a linker error.

## Future Improvements

- Handle leap seconds
- Handle Julian to Gregorian calendar transitions
- Load tzdata always from latest version
- Dynamic tzdata loading
